MOAbout Michelle
Structured, analytical, and solution-focused - I identify roadblocks fast and drive clarity and progress.
With over 6 years of experience in the digital industry and a background in both corporate and startup environments, I specialise in project management, process optimisation, and business improvement. I’ve managed cross-functional initiatives for major organisations like Vestas and led transformation projects in regulated industries during my time as a Project Manager in London.
My foundation is built on:
- 3+ years of project leadership across tech, operations, and business strategy
- Certified Scrum Master with a hands-on, agile approach
- Mastery of the Atlassian suite (Jira/Confluence) for project tracking and collaboration
- Experienced in Umbraco CMS implementations and workshop facilitation
- Strong analytical mindset paired with stakeholder management expertise
- Proven track record in identifying bottlenecks and designing smarter workflows
I bring a sharp eye for inefficiencies, a structured approach to execution, and the ability to drive strategic initiatives forward - even in complex or rapidly changing settings. Whether you need help mapping processes, leading a project, or redefining workflows, I bring energy, clarity, and high dedication.
